hygge


"The warm glow of candlelight is hygge. Friends and family — that’s hygge too. And let’s not forget the eating and drinking — preferably sitting around the table for hours on end discussing the big and small things in life." Hygge's high season is winter, and Christmas lights, candles galore, and other manifestations of warmth and light, including warm alcoholic beverages, are key to the concept. (Source)


This beautiful Danish concept has been on my mind lately, & although it hasn't been particularly cold, I think it deserves a place in my life. Here's to making a more conscious effort to embrace this cozy concept.












Here's to slowing down, connecting with friends, & carving out some time for the simpler things. Here's to adding a little hygge.
